Background Infertility poses a substantial societal and economic burden; however, current preventive strategies are limited. Recently, the relationship between gut microbiota infertility has garnered increasing attention. The dietary index for (DI-GM) is new that reflects diversity of microbiota. However, its association with female remains unclear. Methods This cross-sectional study included 3,053 women aged 18–45 years from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database 2013 2018. was defined based on responses to questionnaire reproductive health. DI-GM score calculated by averaging intake two 24-h recall interviews. Weighted multivariable logistic regression, restricted cubic splines (RCS), subgroup analyses were used investigate infertility. Results Based self-reported data, 370 participants (12.12%) classified as infertile. A higher proportion lower scores experienced Multivariable regression analysis indicated negative risk infertility, regardless whether independent variable analyzed continuous or in quartiles fully adjusted model (Model 3, variable: OR = 0.89, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.80–0.98, p 0.025; Q4 vs. Q1: 0.63, CI 0.42–0.94, 0.032, trend 0.013). RCS curves demonstrated non-linear risk. Subsequent corroborated robustness these findings. Conclusion These findings suggest females, associated
